In my previous job, we had this problem (and they probably still do). We were
running on a Solaris-9 master server. We had over 1600 clients and over 1300
policies. The jobs were running 7x24. We upped the values in the /etc/system
file to the maximum for what Paul pointed out below. All of this was of
limited use as it would still hang up about once a week or so.
The solution is to go to 6.x because of the new scheduler.

Ahh yes he is using Solaris 8--definitely make sure you tune
appropriately, with 10, most of the parameters are not needed.

http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/268122.htm :
Message Queue parameters: On some UNIX platforms with NetBackup
configurations, it can be necessary to increase the system's message
queue resources to avoid bpsched hangs.
For example, the following changes may need to be made to the
/etc/system file:
set msgsys:msginfo_msgmap=500
set msgsys:msginfo_msgmnb=65536
set msgsys:msginfo_msgssz=16
set msgsys:msginfo_msgseg=8192
set msgsys:msginfo_msgtql=500
Also, the below technote may be of interest.
